A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 361 West 36th Street would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
361 West 36th Street is a full-floor loft cooperative on the Hudson Yards edge of the Garment District — a 1925 Art Deco manufacturing building, owned by Crossroads Owners Corporation, converted to a residential co-op in 1981. Where its neighbor across the block subdivides into small prewar apartments, 361 West 36th is defined by whole-floor lofts of roughly 3,000 to 4,750 square feet, several with attractive setback terraces, that trade as substantial live-work residences.
The building has a genuine artistic pedigree: the celebrated realist painter Philip Pearlstein — whose work hangs in the Metropolitan Museum, MoMA, and the Whitney — kept a loft here divided between living quarters and a working studio. The cooperative also owns its ground-floor commercial space, portions of which are used as professional film and photography studios, a legacy of the building's manufacturing past.
Architecture and building operations
361 West 36th Street is a twelve-story Art Deco loft building of 1925, converted to an 18-unit cooperative in 1981. The residences are full-floor lofts — typically 3,000 to 4,750 square feet — with high ceilings, open volumes, and, in some units, setback terraces. A passenger elevator serves the residences alongside a freight elevator retained from the building's manufacturing era.
Operations: keyed and freight elevator service; co-op-owned ground-floor commercial units that generate building income; live-work and studio use in portions of the building. This is a loft co-op of substantial, artist-scaled residences rather than a conventional apartment building.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00760-0007). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
